[08:58] <rajendra> Hi,
[08:58] <rajendra>  When I try to execute a thread creation program I am getting the following error.
[08:58] <rajendra> allocate_stack: Assertion `size != 0' failed
[08:59] <rajendra> I am working on Ubuntu 12.04LTS and I am using glibc version 2.15.
[08:59] <rajendra> Please let me know if I have to install any additional packages to resolve this.
[09:37] <kanliot> rajendra, you need to tell it the stacksize
[10:07] <rajendra> Kanliot, you mean to sau I need edit the file "/etc/security/limits.conf" add an entry for stacksize/
[10:07] <rajendra> *say
[12:59] <Ade> Hello everyone. I have been having a browse around the beginners team wiki today and would like to get involved. Does anyone have any good advice?
[13:00] <evilduanedesign> hello Ade
[13:00] <evilduanedesign> Ade, join our #ubuntu-beginners-team channel
[13:01] <evilduanedesign> Ade, that is our off topic chat channel. This one we use for giving help

[14:52] <MartynKeigher> Hey. anyone had any luck setting their ubuntu to an exchange mail server?
[14:53] <smartboyhw> Sadly no:)
[14:53] <MartynKeigher> thunderbird? evolution? thoughts?
[14:53] <MartynKeigher> thats what i was expecting smartyboy! :(
[14:53] <smartboyhw> lol
[14:53] <smartboyhw> WINDOW 8
[14:53] <smartboyhw> Sorry
[14:54] <MartynKeigher> i know davmail has to play a role in it, but i DO have a Win7 VM on VBox...i guess i'll have to use that.
[14:54] <smartboyhw> I want to type "/WINDOW 8" in irssi
[14:54] <MartynKeigher> would 'prefer' to use a ubuntu solution thoguh
[14:54] <smartboyhw> WINDOW 3
[14:54] <MartynKeigher> linux has never played nicely with exchange has it? you'd think by now it would ok.
[14:55] <MartynKeigher> how about receiver for ubuntu? any good?
[14:55] <MartynKeigher> do-able?
[14:55] <smartboyhw> I don't even use exchange or receiver...Grrr
[14:56] <Sidewinder1> MartynKeigher, Setting up an exchange mail server is probably not really a beginner issue. You may have better responses in the channel #ubuntu. If you do not receive any satisfactory responses, here. :-)
[14:58] <MartynKeigher> oh i know...i have been using ubuntu for about 3 days now & i love it!! just wished that it would play nicer with Exchange.
[15:03] <Sidewinder1> MartynKeigher, There's also http://ubuntuforums.org  A very, very valuable resource.
[15:14] <MartynKeigher> Thanks man! I'll give it a look! :)
[15:14] <meditatingfrog> or vice versa
[15:14] <MartynKeigher> hey i do have a question..about the notifications.
[15:18] <Sidewinder1> Fire away.
[15:19] <MartynKeigher> i have a twitter account in the broadcast option, but new tweets dont pop up
[15:20] <Sidewinder1> Oops, sorry, I know absolutely nothing about twitter. Or, I'm somewhat proud to say, any other 'social networking' site; no offense, just not my thing. :)
[15:21] <MartynKeigher> its the notification area that isnt working
[15:23] <Sidewinder1> Probably just a configuration, but just a guess.
[15:36] <minorix> Is there anyone in information security that would be willing to allow me to interview them for a college project?
[16:58] <cortman> hi bizhanMona
[17:00] <bizhanMona> hi cortman
[17:01] <bizhanMona> I need some info on UEFI bios support on ubuntu?
[17:04] <holstein> http://askubuntu.com/questions/135621/ubuntu-12-04-using-uefi maybe
[17:04] <holstein> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFIBooting
[17:04] <holstein> does uefi allow ubuntu to support it. thats the question
[17:06] <kanliot> i have uefi
[17:06] <kanliot> never used it
[17:06] <kanliot> though i think it does work
[17:07] <holstein> i thought canonnical "paid for a key" or whatever
[17:07] <kanliot> that's secure boot
[17:07] <kanliot> on locked down arm platforms
[17:07] <kanliot> you're lucky i've listen to security podcasts over and over
[17:08] <holstein> i thought they were one in the same... though i dont follow ARM info uch
[17:08] <holstein> much*
[17:09] <kanliot> i like my motherboard, although it eats up to much ram
[17:09] <kanliot> for no good reason
[17:18] <kanliot> holstein, did something just happen in #lubuntu?
[17:18] <kanliot> i read it, but i missed it
[17:19] <bizhanMona> how would I know if my motherboard supports UEFI or not, We just bought new mother board with Ivy Bridge and Sand bridge?
[17:19] <holstein> kanliot: nah.. its cool
[17:20] <kanliot> bizhanMona, read the specs of you motherboard
[17:21] <bizhanMona> yes it does say UEFI bios.
[17:36] <bizhanMona> question, is it possible to create a Ubuntu image with x11 support and without any of the desktop gui environment?
[17:38] <kanliot> yes
[17:39] <kanliot> i did it recently coz i like gvim
[17:42] <bizhanMona> kanliot: how did you manage to do it please?
[17:42] <kanliot> install gvim
[17:42] <kanliot> easy
[17:43] <kanliot> vim-gtk
[17:44] <bizhanMona> Okay let me explain more what I like to do: I like to have a livecd which after I installed and booted, there be no gui, only command line, then I can type startx command to start an x11 session...
[17:46] <kanliot> you will have to install all the bits of the x11 system
[17:46] <kanliot> not something for a beginner
[17:46] <kanliot> at least install lxde
[17:47] <kanliot> you could install lubuntu-core
[17:47] <kanliot> i know that works
[17:47] <kanliot> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Lubuntu/Documentation/MinimalInstall
[17:47] <bizhanMona> does lubuntu-core supports UEFI boot also?
[17:48] <kanliot> install lubuntu-core on a ubuntu server
[17:48] <kanliot> or the minimal cd
[17:48] <kanliot> yes
[17:48] <kanliot> although you can turn off UEFI if you don't like it
[17:48] <kanliot> in the bios
[17:49] <bizhanMona> This is great thanks so much. Does lubuntu support the same ubuntu package also. We need to use AMD/ATI card which it has its own properiatory driver?
[17:50] <kanliot> no need to
[17:50] <kanliot> and yes it supports most ubuntu packages
[17:51] <kanliot> although running some plugins require GNOME, KDE, etc
[17:51] <kanliot> UNITY
[17:51] <kanliot> really you will be running ubuntu
[17:53] <bizhanMona> thanks our target system will be an embedded system seems like this has what I need.
[17:53] <bizhanMona> one more question, we need to create our own ISO images, what is the build system for lubuntu?
[17:55] <kanliot> bizhanMona, use remastersys
[17:55] <kanliot> although i have never used it
[17:55] <kanliot> so i can't really help you in  a meaningful way
[17:56] <bizhanMona> thank you thank you. You have given me lost us of info so I can start my investigation now. Thanks again.
[20:38] <gypsy_blood> http://paste.ubuntu.com/1213654/   <---problem i am having if anyone has a min to check it out....and hello, hope everyone is having a good day =D
[20:39] <dniMretsaM> that's odd. never seen that before
[20:40] <gypsy_blood> yeah...its only those 3 programs as far as i can tell, i tried opening a few programs to see if EVERYTHING was messin up, but other things work just fine
[20:43] <dniMretsaM> open Terminal and type in the following: sudo apt-get update
[20:44] <dniMretsaM> does the out put give you any instructions to fix the issue?
[20:46] <gypsy_blood> sry was in the other forum..just switched over...trying that now
[20:52] <gypsy_blood> http://paste.ubuntu.com/1213690/    <-- thats what happened, toward the bottom of it you will see a bunch of errors and fails...
[20:54] <dniMretsaM> well that's awkward
[20:54] <dniMretsaM> the GPG signature for the official repos is bad
[20:55] <dniMretsaM> that shouldn't stop you from running a package manager, though
[20:55] <gypsy_blood> any suggestions? or think i should just reinstall Ubuntu and start fresh?
[20:56] <cortman> not at all
[20:56] <cortman> GPG errors are easy to fix
[20:56] <cortman> see here gypsy_blood : http://cortman.wordpress.com/2012/02/27/how-to-fix-gpg-errors-in-ubuntu/
[20:56] <gypsy_blood> o ok
[20:57] <dniMretsaM> thanks for the link, cortman
[20:57] <dniMretsaM> was looking for that
[20:57] <cortman> np dniMretsaM - didn't mean to butt in, but I wrote that up just so I didn't have to repeat myself. :)
[20:57] <gypsy_blood> yeah thnx...so i just use those commands in order from top to bottom correct?
[20:58] <dniMretsaM> lol it's np
[20:58] <cortman> Yep
[20:58] <cortman> gypsy_blood, ^^
[20:58] <cortman> run each line separate
[20:58] <cortman> one at a time
[20:58] <cortman> 9 times out of 10 that fixes it
[20:58] <gypsy_blood> kk, trying.......
[21:03] <gypsy_blood> hah, wow, that worked like a charm, all 3 programs working just how they're suppose to, thanks so much
[21:03] <cortman> yay!
[21:03] <cortman> no problem
[21:04] <gypsy_blood> any particular reason why that problem would occur?
[21:04] <gypsy_blood> so that i can try to avoid it in the future
[21:05] <cortman> I don't think it's user influenced at all
[21:05] <cortman> A corrupted packages list download?
[21:05] <cortman> Could be a number of things- I don't know what specifically causes it.
[21:06] <gypsy_blood> oh ok, well, only things i have downloaded is stuff that comes up in the update manager...is it recommended to just update with everything it offers or should i pick and choose, and if pick in choose, how do i tell which is good which isnt?
[21:06] <cortman> It's best to upgrade everything
[21:07] <gypsy_blood> kk
[21:07] <gypsy_blood> at least now thnx to your guys help, i know how to fix the problem if it occurs again
[21:07] <cortman> you bet!
[21:08] <cortman> And if you need any more help feel free to use the forums or this channel
[21:08] <cortman> hope to see you around :)
[21:08] <gypsy_blood> and 1 other question....is there a good link for Terminal Commands List?
[21:08] <gypsy_blood> im very noob with that, and hardly know how to do anything, trying to teach myself
[21:08] <cortman> heh my specialty
[21:09] <cortman> I put together this wiki page (with a number of people's contributions) : https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CommandLineResources
[21:10] <gypsy_blood> oh ok, great thnx
[21:10] <cortman> np
[21:10] <cortman> especially recommend Greg's wiki
[21:10] <gypsy_blood> i can do some of the basics...but VERY basic from when i used my dads old comp years ago, it ran in the Command Prompt and didnt have windows
[21:11] <cortman> everyone starts somewhere. :)
[21:11] <cortman> I didn't know squat about CLI before I started using Linux
[21:11] <gypsy_blood> but all i knew how to do with that was just navigate through folders and directories and all...now im takin it to the next level lol
[21:12] <cortman> I still don't know much, but more than when I started.
[21:12] <gypsy_blood> yeah...i use to want to be a computer programmer...but then i started smoking weed and kinda put that on the back burner...years later = dont do that anymore and its back on the front burner lol
[21:13] <cortman> Well good for you for quitting and putting that behind you
[21:16] <gypsy_blood> yeah...thnx, just wasnt really me...but im hard headed lol, gotta learn everything the hard way...guess thats a good quality with learning programming tho, i love a challenge =D
[21:34] <gypsy_blood> does anyone know if there is an easy fix to this....my cd drive will read everything....will burn cd's....but wont burn dvd's
[21:38] <dniMretsaM> gypsy_blood: are you sure the drive supports writing DVDs?
[21:38] <gypsy_blood> dniMretsaM: yes, it use to work fine...a few months ago it stopped working properly...honestly im leaning toward bad hardware
[21:39] <dniMretsaM> did it stop working when you used Windows as well?
[21:39] <gypsy_blood> yes
[21:40] <gypsy_blood> someone helped me the other day with how to use cdrecord, and found out that that i could burn cd's at least...but when i tried doing a dvd with cdrecord, it didnt work
[21:40] <dniMretsaM> then I would have to guess bad hardware
[21:40] <dniMretsaM> possibly a bad laser or something
[21:41] <gypsy_blood> is there any way to test that without installing new hardware?
[21:42] <dniMretsaM> I have no idea. maybe take the drive out, stick it in a computer that does burn DVDs and test it thereL
[21:42] <dniMretsaM> ?*
[21:43] <gypsy_blood> its in a laptop...dont have another laptop, think maybe just taking it out and putting it back in would be worth a try? or just waste of time?
[21:43] <dniMretsaM> I guess the connecter could be loose or you could have a damaged wire. couldn't hurt to check
[21:44] <gypsy_blood> hmm, k thnx...im gonna try that
[21:45] <gypsy_blood> guess ill try it now, see what happens...
[22:20] <bizhanMona> hi what is the difference between lubuntu-core and lubuntu-desktop?
[22:24] <krytarik> bizhanMona, please see here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Lubuntu/Documentation/MinimalInstall#Full_install_or_core_install.3F - Other than that, there is also a #lubuntu channel. ;)
[22:28] <bizhanMona> krytarik: thanks
[22:29] <krytarik> You're welcome - hope that helps already. :)
